Alternating air mattresses are made up of interconnected air cells that cyclically inflate and deflate to provide therapeutic benefits for pressure injury patients. Common medical mattresses or the "static mattress" can only minimise the pressure by maximising skin contact area. Alternating air mattresses periodically apply and remove pressure from the skin’s surface, diminishing the time any area is exposed to high pressure. This added feature makes therapeutic pressure mattresses one of the safest options for the prevention and treatment of pressure injuries.
Winncare are world leaders in designing and manufacturing specialist pressure care lying surface solutions for at-risk, to extremely high-risk individuals. Designed to prevent and heal pressure injuries from stage 1 to 4, Winncare’s range of alternating air mattresses have been developed (and are continually improved), in collaboration with European healthcare professionals, their clients, carers; and based on the analysis of the results of the clinical studies they undertake.
